PREMIERE BEAUTY has been given a 4lb rise for a comfortable success at Lingfield a fortnight ago and there appears to be no reason to suggest why she won't go close again. The unexposed Reminder looks an obvious threat having won her maiden over C&D in June and is now having her first taste of handicap company, while Penguin Island is fancied to appreciate a return to 6f.

A few with chances but Nigel Tinkler's AS IF BY CHANCE looked to have something left in the locker when scoring at Nottingham so edges the vote. Reminder is less exposed and rates a big threat now going into handicaps for the first time, with Premiere Beauty and Amazonian Dream two more who can have a say in a competitive handicap.

Any number could win this but HAVANA PUSEY appeals as a 3yo with more to offer and her run on soft ground last time should be forgotten.

James's Delight got off the mark at the first time of asking at Newbury last month and looks sure to make his presence felt, although a 7lb penalty is sure make life tougher for him. MISS INFORMATION is in receipt of 12lb from the aforementioned colt which brings her into the equation and, having chased home a smart filly at Salisbury just over a fortnight ago, she gets the nod. Mercian Warrior shaped well when third on debut despite running green and is another to note.

JAMES'S DELIGHT saw off a subsequent winner when making a successful debut at Newbury 5 weeks ago and can defy a penalty with the prospect of improvement to come. Mercian Warrior and Miss Information look the dangers, while Sala Da Ballo is a newcomer to note.

Many an Eve Johnson Houghton juvenile has improved significantly on its debut effort and MERCIAN WARRIOR gets the nod.

This represents a huge drop in class for DEAUVILLE LEGEND, who has finished behind Hukum and Pyledriver on his last two starts. His most recent win was a year ago ago when landing the Group 2 Great Voltigeur at York in commanding style and he may prove too classy for this lineup. Candleford is more than capable of going well in a race of this nature. Of the remainder, Solid Stone looks best having shaped well enough last time.

DEAUVILLE LEGEND has a very solid overall record and can be given a chance to atone for his King George no show with cheekpieces added now. It looks significant that the Gosden stable is happy to step Lion's Pride up to listed level so early in his career and it would be no surprise were he to give James Ferguson's charge most to do.

It's all about potential with LION'S PRIDE but he looked good at Kempton and he's bred to be up to this level.

Some very nice types line up for this prize with the tentative selection being PASSENGER. Sir Michael Stoute's charge struggled to land a blow in the Derby on his previous outing but he can continue his progress in these calmer waters. West Wind Blows is the biggest danger after running with credit in the Eclipse at Sandown behind Paddington and Emily Upjohn, while last-time-out winner State Occasion deserves a closer look.

Sir Michael Stoute has saddled the last two winners of this and in PASSENGER the yard fields an intriguing candidate. The Ulysses colt was far too keen upped to 1½m in the Derby when last seen in June and had looked very promising prior to that, winning the Wood Ditton on debut at Newmarket in April prior to finishing a joint-third in the Dante. State Occasion did the job well at Salisbury recently and she is feared most ahead of the smart and consistent West Wind Blows.

Passenger and State Occasion are feared but WEST WIND BLOWS (nap) brings solid form credentials back into a Group 3.

The ultra-consistent ONE STEP BEYOND looks the one to beat in this line up after his success over 1m at Ascot last time. Gary Moore's charge has been raised 6lb for that win but that may not be enough to stop him from following up here. Star Player could be on a dangerous mark, while Global Esteem may not be too far away.

The vote goes to multiple C&D winner GREY FOX, who left the strong impression that his turn is again near when third at Sandown where he did well to finish as close as he did, given how far back he was when the race began in earnest. Star Player failed to reward his supporters at Redcar a fortnight ago but a reproduction of his Pontefract effort in June would put him firmly in the picture, while Global Esteem and the in-form One Step Beyond are others to consider.

Topweight ONE STEP BEYOND made it three wins from his last four starts when scoring at Ascot and that form has worked out well.

Major Major showed a willing attitude when scoring over the extended 1m3f at Lingfield last time but he may find it difficult to defy this 5lb rise, therefore the nod goes to TIMEWAVE. Charlie Johnston's charge was a decent third over 1m2f at Yarmouth recently and he can get his head in front off the same mark here, while Storm Valley could also go well.

MAJOR MAJOR did well to get up at Lingfield last time out so Richard Hannon's progressive 3-y-o is taken to defy a 5 lb rise in the weights and follow up at the chief expense of Timewave who should be suited by stepping up in trip. Miss Lightfandango is weighted to have a big say too and warrants plenty of respect.

Major Major has solid prospects but this longer trip could eke out some improvement from STORM VALLEY and she is preferred.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool.

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
